Did I overdo it

We were away this past weekend at a retreat in Asheville, NC at the Billy Graham retreat center. While we were there we decided to go to the top of the mountain to an Overlook where we were staying. 1600 feet with an average of 20% incline, 3.8 miles up and 2.5 miles down (much more steep coming down) It was VERY tiring… took us 2.5 hours going up and 1.5 coming down. My legs still feel it. I hope I have not messed up this close to the Marathon. I was beautiful and well worth it. I can't wait to see all of you on Friday morning, here are some pictures from the top of the mountain and also from Blue Ridge parkway in Asheville.
